Don Friedlich is a leading figure in contemporary jewelry and served a term as President of the Society of North American Goldsmiths. He received his BFA in Jewelry and Metalsmithing from RISD in 1982. His jewelry has been shown in museums all over the world and is in the permanent collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, the Corning Museum of Glass, Montreal Fine Arts Museum and many others. He has been an artist in residence at the Corning Museum of Glass, Canberra School of Art in Australian, Tainan National University of Art in Taiwan and elsewhere.
Lumina Series is a continuation of his interest in identifying qualities that are unique to jewelry as medium. Some designs dramatically shift in color when viewed at different angles, others in color intensity. They are in part inspired by the effect of the sunlight that is reflected by the moon, and at times, diffused by cloud cover or fog.
